550awhp with lighter rods and different valvesprings-does it have a higher rpm limit now which allows the high hp figure? I just want to figure out if I purchase the hybrids w/o changing the bottom end what hp figures I can get on 93-thanks.

The turbos are straight RS6 turbos with a larger extended tip compressor wheel.
The higher rev limit doesn't affect peak power as it is presently occurring at ~6300 RPM.
HOWEVER, the stock bottom end is not capable of handling that much power without failing.

Correct, that was Dave's old setup (straight RS6's) on pump gas
And that was in 80+ degree weather. And I'm pretty sure that was with his RS4 intercoolers (IAT hell). His current numbers of 560 whp are with hybrid RS6's on vp109, in decemeber and with much better IC's.
Oh and I wouldn't call that being walked. Pretty even IMO. The f430 pulled a car length or so on some of the runs. Others it was neck and neck.
